So it's clutch time.

My '96 9000 semi-Aero that is in daughter #1's hands in SoCal is needing a clutch. Saw it for the first time in a year this week and it needs a clutch and a throttle cable. (I also fixed her A/C --broken connection-- and got her central locks to work again.)
I called Walter Wong --who was absolutely great to chat with-- and will have his shop do the work. He even suggested ordering the parts and having eEuro ship them to him.
So having never had to replace a clutch, I'm thinking I should do the whole thing: clutch, master, slave, the rubber and metal line, etc. Is this the best approach, given the beast has 182K on it? Walter said to get an OEM slave. eEuro doesn't list that, so I may shop for it.
Anything else I need to know?
TIA
